Captains Score Late, Clip Eagles, 3-2
The San Diego Captains eked out a 3-2 win versus the Washington Eagles at Monument Field. Nobody did more than pitcher Ed Payne. He was terrific. San Diego reliever Brian Meade picked up the win to move to 4-5. Alex Fonseca suffered the loss. The Captains lead the National Baseball League Western Division by 4½ games.

San Diego used the timely hitting of Bob Anderson to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Captains on top, 3-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Anderson attributed the win to his team's "steely resolve."
